Abdul Nasir Jangda – 30 Days 30 Questions about Ramadan – EP17

			salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato. Who decided not to Jenga from column Institute, coming to
you once again with a special session of the column hangout 30 days 30 questions about the month of
Ramadan? The question that we have today is, what if someone masturbated while they were fasting? So
first and foremost, * is something that is strongly discouraged in Islam, and it is
considered a sin. Secondly, fasting and one of the tenets of fasting is abstaining from indulging
and engaging in one's sexual desires. And * would be exactly that. That's why it is not
permissible while fasting. Now, if someone did masturbate while they were fasting, what is the
		

			ruling? So there are two scenarios here. First and foremost, someone was * and they
stopped short of *, then in this scenario, that person will not have to make up for this
fast he will not have to repeat this fast. The Fast is not invalidated technically. However, it is
still something that he's extremely disliked and considered sinful. And it takes away the reward and
the blessing of the vast so that person should most definitely repent to Allah subhanho wa Taala and
ask Allah subhanaw taala for forgiveness and protection. second scenario is that someone masturbated
to the point of *, this will invalidate that fast, this will nullify the fast and that
		

			person will have to make up for this fast after the month of Ramadan. However, it does not
necessitate a kuthodaw a penalty, such as sexual * invalidates the fast and also
necessitates the kuthodaw the penalty, because the requirement or the obligation of the penalty,
deca fata, upon a person is something that has to be explicitly stated through the sacred sources,
and that is the case with sexual *, but not with *. So therefore, it will
invalidate the fast a person will have to make up for this day of fasting, but will not necessitate
a cafardo will not necessitate a penalty. That is basically the ruling when it comes to *
		

			and fasting in the month of Ramadan. Generally speaking, at the end of the conclusion, I would once
again advise everyone, the month of Ramadan is about gaining control of one's you know, desires and
being in control of one's temptations. And so the month of Ramadan is there to help us focus our
spiritual energies and for our allow to allow our spirituality to be dominant over our physical
needs and desires. And that is something that is very important that we try to achieve during the
month of Ramadan. So if somebody does have an issue, such as watching * or *,
then Ramadan is the perfect time to basically rehabilitate from that to give those things up, and to
		

			improve oneself in that regard. fastened shot law, asked the last panel with Allah for protection.
ask Allah subhanaw taala for strength as the last panel which allows for his mercy and His
forgiveness, and try your best to fast, abstaining from all of these things. May Allah subhanaw
taala give us all a very blessed Ramadan. May Allah subhanaw taala allow us to purge these evils in
the sins from our lives, which is Akuma la halen was Salaam Alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. We
got just a couple of sessions left. If you'd like to have your questions answered, please send them
